Good luck! I hope you find you like it.

Hi there and thanks for the post.
Ya.. I don't "quit eating for the day" very often, maybe only a couple of times a month but it's a good way to keep myself on track when I find I have overeaten for the day. (Or the day before). To me this is the most simple way of dealing with my food.
I do try to eat real food at least 80% of the time. I do eat too many packaged diet meals for dinners though.
I have been doing this (calorie counting) for years on and off and I always come back to it. I also really love low carb and have success with that as well.
